Figure skater loses panties, wows judges and crowd

Chinese figure skater Ku Chee Lee had an apparent wardrobe malfunction and lost her panties midway through her routine. A consummate professional, Lee continued to skate receiving a standing ovation from the crowd at the end.

Peter Wakinov, the Russian judge, gave Lee an extra point for “meticulous grooming”. British judge Ian Wilshire had an epiphany. “I always thought the slit was horizontal on Chinese girls”, remarked Wilshire in a seemingly breathless tone. “I learned something new today.”
